What are the implications for life in general?<\/p>\n<p>In this episode we\u2019ve got the relatively new field of quantum biology to assess. For years the idea of quantum effects in biological cells was dismissed because live cells were \u2018too warm and wet\u2019 to host these sensitive quantum coherences. But new research into quantum coherence in avian navigation, quantum tunnelling in DNA mutations, in enzymes, even in smell &#8211; has brought new interest and study to the field of Quantum Biology.<\/p>\n<p>One biochemist, saw all this coming and wrote a book about it 20 years ago called, \u2018Quantum evolution\u2019. He is none other that than Professor of Molecular Genetics at Surrey university, JohnJoe McFadden.<\/p>\n<p>His mainstream research is in microbial genetics, particularly in developing new systems biology approaches to infectious diseases. He is a keen promoter of public understanding of science and has given many popular science talks on subjects as varied as evolution and GM food. He also writes popular science articles, particularly for the Guardian newspaper. His specialties are broad including: systems biology, microbiology, evolutionary genetics, infectious diseases, tuberculosis, meningitis, and bionanotechnology.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s written many books but in this episiode we\u2019ll be focussing on material from his newer books, \u2018Life on the Edge, the coming age of Quantum Biology\u2019 with physicist Jim Al-Khalili, and \u2018Life is Simple: How Occams Razor Set Science Free and Unlocked the Universe\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Sorry for the occasional connection lagtime on this video, the audio is fine though.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/read.amazon.com\/kp\/card?asin=B098JPSPYG&amp;preview=inline&amp;linkCode=kpe&amp;ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_5AR5WSM1QG4Z4TSWRA5C\" width=\"336\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What evidence is there for quantum effects in biological systems?
